The Search is Over: Meet the Heritage Beef Stick

US-Based. Regeneratively Raised. Traditionally Fermented.

I’ve heard you loud and clear.

You want a meat stick that actually fits the way you feed your family. No junk, no mystery “natural flavors,” no clean-washing. Just real, nourishing food from a farm you can trust.

I am so proud to announce our partnership with Peterson Craft Meats.

Andy and Jenna run a multi-generational, pasture-based, regenerative family farm in Wisconsin. Following the Joel Salatin model of stewardship, their animals work the land together in a closed-loop system that heals the soil while raising incredibly healthy animals. This is the kind of sourcing I’ve always wanted to be able to offer you.

A little about why I made this

I’m Marisa, a mom of five, and I’ve spent years getting gut-supporting, ancestral foods onto my own family’s table. Organ meats, ferments, real nourishment. I know how hard it is to do this consistently when life is full and everyone is hungry and time is short. I wanted a grab-and-go snack I could actually feel good about handing my kids, one with organ meats and real fermentation built in, that they’d be excited to eat. I couldn’t find it anywhere, so we made it. My own kids devour these, and they have no idea they’re eating heart and liver. That’s the whole point.

Why These Are Different

I’m taking this further than any “clean” brand you’ll find on a grocery shelf. We use a traditional fermentation process, the same slow, live-culture method behind high-end salami and sourdough, to create a genuinely gut-supporting, shelf-stable snack without the shortcuts.

  • Regeneratively pasture raised beef. From a US family farm devoted to soil health and animal welfare.
  • Truly fermented. Live culture and a small bit of raw honey to feed the cultures, not celery juice powder or nitrates. The honey feeds the fermentation, so little to none remains in the finished stick.
  • Gut-supporting. A snack that works with your family’s microbiome, not against it.
  • Nightshade-free and GAPS-friendly. No fillers, no MSG, nothing hidden.
  • A seamless organ blend. Nourishing heart and liver, folded in so well you’d never know. Even picky eaters won’t taste it.

What’s NOT in it (and why that matters)

If you’ve been burned by “clean” products before, this is for you. Here’s what we left out on purpose:

  • No celery powder. It’s a “natural” loophole for hidden nitrates, and one of the biggest red flags in this category.
  • No citric acid. An industrial shortcut that stands in for real fermentation. We do the real thing instead.
  • No nightshades. No paprika, no chili. AIP-friendly and gentle on the gut.
  • No “natural flavors.” The industry’s catch-all for undisclosed additives. Never here.
